First time visiting WHANGAREI (Northland Region) | New Zealand
Whangarei is in the Northland region of New Zealand's North Island. It was our first time visiting Whangarei and we went there after our trip to Kawau Island in our previous vlog.
We drove to Whangarei from Paparoa which was where we our Airbnb was after Kawau Island:

First stop in Whangarei was to get some food. We love Vietnamese food so when one of our awesome supporters recommended Mean's Vietnamese Cafe in his home city of Whangarei, we had to go try it out. It was exactly what we needed to kick start our day!
Mean's Vietnamese Cafe
Address: 13 Rathbone Street, Whangārei 0110
Hours: Tue Sat 11am–2:45pm, 5–8:45pm
Sun 12pm–2:45pm, 5–7:45pm
Mon Closed
Our next stop was to Kiwi North, a unique and educational place where we were able to see a young 10 year old tuatara and two very cute kiwi birds. Kiwi North play a very important role in the conservation of kiwi birds. They look after and raise the young chicks to maturity before they are released to a sanctuary or a facility where they're bred. Kiwi North is Northland's only Kiwi house and they also have a museum and heritage park all in the same complex which makes it a great place for learning and spending a few hours at.

Address: 500 State Highway 14, Maunu, Whangārei 0179
Hours: Mon–Sun 10am–4pm
Our Whangarei accommodation was a super clean, modern, self-contained unit that had its own off-street parking, private entrance and deck too. The space was conveniently close to Whangarei Falls and the city centre making it such a great stay for the two of us.

The next day after checking out of Lynette's place, we visited one of Whangarei's most popular attractions, Otuihau Whangarei Falls. A majestic and very scenic waterfall with a short looped walk. We loved that you could see this waterfall from all angles. A great spot for photos too.
Our final stop in Whangarei before we returned to Auckland was Mount Parihaka an ancient volcano and said to be once the largest fortified pā in New Zealand. There are native bush walking tracks that reach the summit which require varying fitness levels depending on the track. However, we drove to the top via Memorial Drive, parked there then walked a flight of stairs to get to the viewing platform. Mt Parihaka Lookout had great scenic views of Whangarei city and harbour.
